Carbon Reduction Plan

Lingland Interpreters and Translators Ltd is committed to achieving Net Zero carbon emissions across its operations.

​

Our targets are to achieve Net Zero for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2040, and Net Zero for relevant Scope 3 emissions by 2045.

​

This Carbon Reduction Plan has been prepared in accordance with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard and supports the UK Government’s PPN 06/21 requirements.

​

Our baseline year is 2026. During this baseline year, our total emissions were recorded as 740 tCO2e. Our current reported emissions are 710 tCO2e, showing early progress in reducing our overall carbon footprint.

​

Lingland aims to reduce emissions through improved operational efficiency, lower fuel consumption, increased use of low-carbon electricity, remote working practices, digital service delivery, supplier engagement, and sustainable travel practices.

Our carbon reduction projects include:

​

• Increased use of remote interpreting and translation services to reduce travel emissions.

• Reduction in unnecessary business travel.

• Increased use of digital document management and paperless systems.

• Energy efficiency improvements within office operations.

• Review of supplier sustainability practices where applicable.

• Monitoring and reporting of carbon emissions in accordance with the GHG Protocol.

 

Relevant Scope 3 categories may include purchased goods and services, business travel, employee commuting, energy-related activities, waste generated in operations, and transportation and distribution.

This Carbon Reduction Plan has been reviewed and approved by senior management.
